COMPACT WELL TESTING (CWT) SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE FOR WET GAS WELLS

Abstract: a cyclonic system and method for gas-liquid-solid separation is provided. the system may comprise a gas-liquid cylindrical cyclone (glcc) for gas-liquid separation, a cyclone for solid particle separation, and a cyclone for droplet separation. the glcc may have a vertical churn flow coalescer and a horizontal inlet with an internal inclined flow diverting plate to direct the flow tangentially to the glcc. the cyclone with a horizontal tangential inlet for solid separation may be installed at the lower section of the vertical churn flow coalescer. solid particles may be collected at the bottom and discharged. the cyclone for droplet separation may be installed at the upper section of the glcc. liquid may be collected in the annulus and drained to the lower section of the glcc.
